2019 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · EB19 CWM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its latest MOT on 15 June 2026 at 37,115 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows an improvement following a period of recurring reactive repairs. While previous tests highlighted issues with braking efficiency and tyres, the most recent inspection indicates that the owner addressed these concerns, resulting in a clean sheet for the present. The mileage profile reflects low usage for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,300 miles annually. This low mileage is consistent across the records, moving from 23,985 miles in August 2023 to 37,115 miles by June 2026. However, low-mile vehicles often suffer from rubber degradation due to stationary periods, which is evidenced by the August 2025 test where the offside front tyre was flagged for cracking and perishing despite relatively low mileage. A buyer should pay close attention to the braking system given the history of failures. The vehicle failed in 2023 at 23,968 miles due to thin rear brake pads and poor brake efficiency, followed by thin front pads in 2025. While these have since passed, a physical inspection of the remaining material and condition of the discs is necessary to ensure no seizing or uneven wear has occurred. The recurring tyre wear patterns noted in 2024 also suggest potential alignment issues or worn suspension bushes that should be verified during a test drive to prevent premature consumable failure.
